NCIS:Los Angeles may have been cancelled but NCIS itself is still going strong and set to welcome back a well-loved character in Monday night's instalment.

In this video you can see the moment Wilmer Valderrama sent fans of the US police drama wild by cheekily filming the returning favourite.

In a first look at the upcoming episode, the show revealed that Zane Holtz is returning as Special Agent Dale Sawyer.

Sharing a snap of Zane standing beside Wilmer, who plays Special Agent Nick Torres, the show's official Instagram account wrote: "Special Agent Sawyer shows up deep in an undercover mission, and Torres finds himself pulled into the center of the dangerous case. Will these two make it out? Find out MONDAY during an all-new #NCIS."

Fans took to the comments section to express their excitement, with one person writing: "Sounds exciting!" while another added: "OMGGGG.

"

A third commented: "SAWYERRRRR!!!!!! Cannot wait for this episode! Been wanting him to come back and have more scenes!!"

Fans last saw Agent Sawyer back in season 19, in which he clashed with Torres during an undercover mission.
